In college, I used Brooklinen's Luxe Core Sheet Set to transform my twin-size dorm bed into an oasis I actually looked forward to sleeping on every night. But while I've considered the brand's sheets a staple for years now, I only recently tested one of their comforters.

Brooklinen's non-weighted comforters come in two different fills – natural down and down alternative – and are available in three sizes – Twin/Twin XL, Full/Queen, and King/California King. Both types of comforters have 400-thread count cotton sateen shells and feature baffle-box construction, a method where the comforter is sewn in squares or pockets, and each pocket is stuffed with the same amount of fill, ensuring even warmth throughout. While this review focuses on the down-alternative comforter, we tested and recommend Brooklinen's Down Comforter in our guide to the best comforters.

Design and specs

If you're new to comforter-shopping, the term "fill power" refers to the measure of the down filling's fluffiness. For down alternatives, the term would be "fill power equivalent" – Brooklinen's down alternative comforters are made with recycled PET bottles or microfiber fill instead. The scale typically starts at 400 and tops out at 900, and the higher the number, the more insulating the comforter will be. Brooklinen's comforters come in three weights: Lightweight features 650 fill power equivalent, All-Season features 700 fill power equivalent, and Ulta-Warm features 750. And while we're on the topic of fluffiness, the comforters are fully fluffed as soon as you take them out of the box, so there's no waiting for them to reshape.

While Brooklinen's comforters are clearly made with care, the most thoughtful detail just might be the loops sewn into all four corners, which prevent them from sliding around inside a duvet cover. Putting a comforter inside of a duvet cover and getting it to stay there can be quite a battle, so I'm extremely grateful for anything that can help ease the process.

Review of Brooklinen's down alternative comforter

Since I have a myriad of allergies, I opted for the Brooklinen down alternative comforter, which is made from hypoallergenic and vegan polyfill microfibers that have been designed to mimic the feel of natural down. I chose the all-season weight because I tend to get cold at night, and wanted to be prepared for New York winters. That said, the lightweight version seems like it would be perfect for warmer weather.

Out of the package, I was initially worried that the comforter wouldn't be heavy enough for me. I tend to sleep better under layers of bedding or a weighted blanket. Surprisingly, though, I haven't felt the need to add extra blankets. This comforter has the perfect amount of fluff and warmth, even though it's lighter than what I am used to. I am thoroughly impressed by how well the all-season comforter is able to regulate my body temperature, keeping me cool enough at night to fall asleep and warm enough in the mornings so I don't wake up shivering.

I love Brooklinen's sheets because they make me feel like I'm sleeping on top of a cloud. Similar to the sheets, the all-season comforter makes me feel like I'm sleeping underneath a cloud – one that happens to be exceptionally fluffy and temperature-regulated.

The bottom line

I've yet to have a bad night's sleep since I started using this comforter. The only downside is that it could be a little wider. I ordered the king-size comforter (106 inches by 90 inches), and it barely covers the sides of my standard king-size bed. Aside from that, I have no complaints.

Brooklinen's down alternative comforter was what my bed was missing to make every night even dreamier.
